Jack Henry

John "Jack" Henry is an offensive line coach for the National Football League's San Diego Chargers. After handling the role for the New Orleans Saints under head coach Jim Haslett and being released, Henry ultimately signed with the Chargers to replace Carl Mauck after also considering the St. Louis Rams.

Henry's NFL coaching career began with the Pittsburgh Steelers (1990–91, legendary Head Coach Chuck Noll's last 2 seasons), he then moved on to coach at the University of Pittsburgh (1993–1995) and the Detroit Lions (1997–1999). While in Detroit, his offensive line helped Barry Sanders to rush for over 2,000 yards. Following Detroit, he went with Jim Haslett to coach the offensive line for the New Orleans Saints. During his time in New Orleans, the Saints won a playoff game for the first time in franchise history and had a 1,000 yard rusher for 5 consecutive years, also a franchise first. He was named Assistant Head Coach and Run Game Coordinator in his later years with the club. Prior to his NFL career, Henry was a college coach for 18 years with stops at West Virginia University, Wake Forest University (where he was also Offensive Coordinator), and Indiana University of Pennsylvania (his alma mater) amongst others.
